Your privacy is important to The Travelsmiths. This notice describes The Travelsmith's privacy policy as it relates to the The Travelsmiths' website (the “Website”). The Travelsmiths may revise this Privacy Policy, and any such revisions will be posted here. By visiting the Website, you accept the policies described in this Privacy Policy, and your continued use of the Website after such changes have been posted constitutes your acceptance of such changes.

General Collection and UsePersonally identifiable information is collected from you when you use the The Travelsmiths' website. Some information is explicitly provided to us by you, while other information, such as your IP address, is gathered automatically as you use our service. We may use your personal information to provide you with travel-related information or responses to vacation requests, or to personalize mailings (electronic or otherwise) or other communications that you consent to receive.

We may share your information with third parties to facilitate your travel plans or requests for information. Your information may also be available to Ensemble Travel, a not-for-profit, member-owned consortium that helps design and administer the Website. Ensemble Travel occasionally helps The Travelsmiths send email to those of The Travelsmiths' customers that consent to receive such information.

Booking ToolsThe Travelsmiths may provide third-party links, or otherwise cooperate with third parties, to provide you with access to online booking tools. These online booking tools are owned and operated by third party providers. The Travelsmiths may provide access to these online booking tools as a service to you, and is not responsible for their operation or information practices. These tools often gather personally identifiable information and financial information from you to complete your booking requests, and our service may include some of your personally identifiable information in the link to the booking tool to help streamline the booking process.

Third Party Privacy PoliciesVendors, online booking tool providers, and other third parties with whom we share your personal identifiable information may have their own privacy policies contained in their linked websites, and we strongly encourage you to read those privacy statements. The Travelsmiths' privacy policy does not apply to these vendors, online booking tool providers, and other third parties, and their policies may differ from our policy. The Travelsmiths shall have no obligation or liability of any kind to you with respect to the privacy policies or practices of its vendors, partners, online booking providers, or linked websites.
